GettyA new research report has found sustainability progress in the fashion industry has slowed by a third in the past year. The Pulse of The Fashion Industry report, created by Global fashion Agenda, Boston Consulting Group and Sustainable Apparel Coalition, reveals that the latest Pulse Score rose four points to 42 (out of 100), compared with an increase of six points in 2018. The Pulse Score was created in 2017 as a measure of advancement made in the space of environmental and social sustainability in fashion. The creators of the report have suggested that change could be accelerated by fashion brand’s developing disruptive technologies that lead to new ways of doing business. However, some transformational changes will take cooperation among policy makers and stakeholders across the entire value chain.”The Pulse of the Fashion Industry Report has been published today and is available here.
